I attended a virtual conference on scholarly publishing you conducted on 30th August 2022. To be frankly speaking it was a brilliant wonderful academic event! I enjoyed and gained knowledge and skills to the extent of admiring the conference could be of two weeks or even more. The conference was educational. It moved me several steps ahead. I have improved a lot and I’m still filling some gaps every time I referring to the presentations of that day. Congratulations dear TIIKM members.

I was really impressed with the TIIKM and the conference, World Conference on Scholarly Publishing. It covered an important topic of equity in publishing and was attended by a large crowd (around 170 during my session). It is good to see a large audience interested in this and asking such thoughtful and pertinent questions. It was my pleasure being involved in the conference and look forward staying engaged with TIIKM.
